Big kudos to Catharine Skipp for this poignant piece in Friday’s Miami Herald—a candid (and wonderfully written) story of life in a changing industry. We had the pleasure of working with Catharine at Newsweek; the University of Miami is lucky to have her.

NSFW: Trust me on the sunscreen (and the future of journalism)

Excellent! This is the point I have wanted to make with regard to real journalism.

I am convinced that there needs to be either state funding for journalism or some independent financier needs to make this case to the public. If the Kindle were $150 I’d have a subscription to the NYTimes, Newsweek and The Economist right along side my Atlantic Monthly and Wired.

Seriously, I won’t miss the two page ads and classifieds at all.

There’s a horribly pompous misconception amongst bloggers that they are somehow ‘taking on the mainstream media’….after camera phone dude helps us establish that the plane has crashed, who can we trust to tell us why it happened?
